Thread: WinterBalance 1.212 Dec 2016, 10:08 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Dec 2016, 10:14 AMMr.Smith Do note that Stug-E becoming better, and more consistent vs stationary infantry is the intended design. The trade-off here, is that stug-E should be considerably worse vs mobile infantry. Also note that a Stug-E costs about half of the resources that a Brummbar requires. Thus, 2x Stug-E's should be somewhat comparable. Especially now that Stug-E packs inferior AT utility/durability to the Brummbar. The days of cheesing the Stug-E commander are over. However, Stug-E should still have -something- to draw people to picking this commander over the other commanders. The real stress-test here is how Stug-E performs vs AT guns. the new stug E is basically another brummbar at this point, with minor stats difference. The vanilla stug E had two issue, it's too cheap (200mp 75 fuel 8 pop is a steal) and the main gun stun is too powerful. I really have to stress how cheap the vanilla stug E is. At 200 mp 75 fuel it's only 5 fuel more expensive than the vanilla t70. The t70 might be the better infantry killer, but the stug E is just a much better overall package. I think your solution is over complicating the issue by changing it into a new units. and the doctrine itself have issue in 2v2+ because of the lackluster Tiger and Assault grenadier.

Thread: WinterBalance 1.210 Dec 2016, 10:08 AM Jump back to quoted post10 Dec 2016, 06:35 AMDanyek So will it be like the vCoH US riflemens' sticky bomb? Of course just without the point and click and it'll be a homing missile until it collides with the tank. It does really feel interesting and unique. So its damage is 2.4x of the original AT nades right? (AT nades deal 100 damage afaik) Nice changes, keep up the good work, I believe in you guys the new satchel will be "stick on contact". It's not a heatseeker but it will stick if you manage a direct hit. it will be easier to stick the satchel on a big fat target like the king tiger than a smaller target like the panzer 4.

Thread: Relic Winter Balance Preview v1.1 Update4 Dec 2016, 07:29 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Dec 2016, 14:06 PMBartonPL About Stugs... i was thinking to give more love to G version That's pretty sad that G version is totally useless vs any type of AT infantry, unless you get top gunner but it's still not worth it, ohh and Stun abilities should be removed from those (E and G) cuz they are too much OP, and soviet assault gun, which is SU-76 could use HE shells instead of barrage, which was useless before the nerf the stug is a tank destroyer. the unit was useless in a generalist role and it took 2 years before the stug finally find their niche of being a tank destroyer. tank destroyer do not engage infantry. the only tank destroyer in the game that can engage infantry is the m10 and that's because of the retarded ai and movement. never go full retard In: Lobby
Thread: Kyle wants feedback on the PIV3 Dec 2016, 09:01 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Dec 2016, 08:20 AMCrumbum The e8 use to have much less hp but it was buffed to 720. This is a discussion about the p4 not the 75mm Sherman which is a completely fine unit that doesn't need changes. The reason you don't see it as much is the change in meta where calliopes and pershings and jacksons have taken larger roles in usf play and going for a Sherman is often a weaker option. the whole reason pershing and calliope were added is because the sherman just was not up to the task.

Thread: Kyle wants feedback on the PIV3 Dec 2016, 08:03 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Dec 2016, 01:51 AMMr. Someguy Interesting idea, although 160 is too much. The Easy Eight currently has 720 health, and I wouldn't be opposed to upgrading the other Shermans (excluding Calliope and Bulldozer) to 720 as well in exchange for lowered penetration. Jump back to quoted post2 Dec 2016, 21:35 PMOutsider_Sidaroth While that would be lovely, you'd need to consider other Shermans variants such as the E8 and Bulldozer and to adjust them as well, the Pershing too since it would be silly to it have the same HP as the Sherman. Still not the worst idea I've heard here, since Shermans rarely bounce stuff, but surviving more than regular AT 4 shots is a big buff. is the main reason for not giving the 75mm sherman 160 extra hp just to make sure the 75mm sherman have less health than the E8? Personally, I think the USF tank line have always suffer from a lack of HP. the t34-85 have 800 hp, why not the the E8? Saying that the 75mm sherman shouldn't have 800 hp because the E8 have 720 is like some kind of nightmare inter-service rivalry where the branches are too busying infighting to actually fight the actual enemy. better to have one decent unit than a bunch of under-performing units.

Thread: Kyle wants feedback on the PIV2 Dec 2016, 21:19 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Dec 2016, 21:14 PMOutsider_Sidaroth Please don't touch the Sherman, keep in mind it's the lategame unit most USF forces companies have. the current status quote is not kind to the USF either. I think the 75mm sherman should get 160 more hp in exchange for the penetration. The USF can use the sherman as their "tank" for their glass cannon jackson. In: COH2 Balance
